Hello,
I have a user who is giving likes to his own posts. I would like to remove that like. Is this possible? How?
Solved
Remove Like given

Maybe through some custom CSS or third-party scripting. There might be a way to identify based on user Id if someone is the author or not, and then to hide the like button to only the author.
No way to stop the points they get unless you remove the functionality. Once the points are applied, you can’t roll them back (althought it’d be a good API feature for them to add, in which case you could build an automation with Zapier or similar tools to undo any points he’s giving himself)

That is correct,
If you believe that’s something valuable to your community, could you create this as idea in our community and give some more details on your use case?
Let me know if there are any other questions. 😊
+2We have this same issue - user likes his/hers own posts. Yeah, we can and we will send PM to user and ask kindly to stop but there should be option to delete likes from certain posts.
We used Khoros back in the days and as a admin or mod I can delete likes from posts.
I also wish there was a way to keep users from liking their own posts. What I have done for now is lower liking a post to 1 point. At least that way they have a long way to go before they earn much.

Yeah, I have lowered liking to 1 point as well. But if you are hard-working you still earn the points 😀
Is there idea raised about this?
+2Now there is!
